HIGHTSTOWN — Susan Bluth was named the new borough council president at its reorganization meeting yesterday.

Bluth, in her first term as councilwoman, will serve in the post for one year. Her council term expires this year.

“I want to put the focus on sharing more services. The borough could be doing more — a lot more,” Bluth said.

A commitment to shared services was a common theme at the reorganization meeting, with newly elected Councilman Steve Misiura today echoing Bluth’s comments.

Misiura and Councilwoman Denise Hansen, both Democrats, won election to their first term on council in November 2013, ousting Republican Councilwomen Selena Bibens and Lynne Woods.

“The feeling is that we’ve nickel-and-dimed everything we can in the borough. We have to start looking at some fundamental changes,” Misiura said.

The borough could look to share its municipal court, Misiura said. Although it operates out of the Robbinsville Municipal Court on Route 130, the Hightstown Municipal Court is technically its own entity with separate costs attached to it.

“We have to tackle shared services, wherever we can get them and wherever we can find them,” Misiura said.
